The weekly steeper decline has left short term technical indicators in extreme oversold levels, as in the 1 hour chart, the RSI stands at 26 whilst the Momentum indicator also stands at record lows.

In the same chart, the 100 SMA has accelerated its decline above the current level, widening the distance with the 200 SMA, far above the shortest, which indicates the strength of the ongoing decline."
